How can I troubleshoot keys not working

I changed the display assembly following the great guide.

Unfortunately I must have messed up something. The shift keys and a few function keys are not working anymore.

I connected a bluetooth keyboard and it works all fine with that one. I assume that it is some hardware issue.

Is there something I can test before changing the keyboard

Maybe some cables that are not connected

Any idea is very welcome

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

My preferred way is to load into OSX Apple>System Preferences> Keyboard, check the box "Show Keyboard & Character viewers in menu bar" Click on the new icon and choose Show Keyboard viewer. It'll give you a digital display of the keyboard that will react to each key that you press.

I did that one and the keys do not react on the keyboard viewer. They react on Bluetooth keyboard but not on the keyboard
